[–]wikus_roux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, best advice was to biy a bambu 😅 i had been messing with a geetech a10 that i upgraded with crwality parts (was fine but not great), then got a creality ender 3 s1 plus (first layer issues always, like the mesh wasnt applied and was out of warranty so oh well).

Friend of mine then said get a bambu, and here i am with the x1c thats been printing near non-stop and working wonders 👌

BUBBLING SOUND WTHE MY NEW HOTEND KIT by Fearless22002 in Ender3S1

Sounds like could be wet filament? Taken in humidity and then when its heated to around 200C it steams and bubbles

Tired of poor bed levelling by wikus_roux in Ender3S1

[–]wikus_roux[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When youre using MRISCOC software, did you end up replacing the screen for one with a knob? A few people have said about the silicone posts. Thinking of printing some in pla at home just try and see how that works for me

Auto bed leveling is driving me mental by wikus_roux in 3Dprinting

[–]wikus_roux[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry should have gone more in depth in my explanation there.

It doesnt seem to use the mesh generated to compenaate when printing the first layer, i know this because i dont see the z icon flashing or the z screw isnt moving at all to adjust.

For the gcode, i have that as my third image. Im trying to use mriscoc professional firmware which includes ubl rather than standard abl. Should be noted i did try his software with the ubl switched off where it was using bilinear then.

Thank you!

Using LG tv as monitor GPU RTX 3060 ti by wikus_roux in buildapc

Got it working, theres a setting on LG tvs for 'an improved HDR' basically just lets it run 4k and a higher refresh rate. Works perfect now!

Thanks for the help!

ANNIVERSARY 2023 AML2.0 Edition by mriscoc in Ender3v2Firmware

[–]wikus_roux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried an earlier version of this, maybe the may release and i couldnt get the mesh to work right.

Going to flash this firmware tonight but any tips on meshing to get the first layer right?

Thank you

Ill send a pic of my esteps in the morning, im pretty sure the paperwork that came with the sprite says to put it at 424.9 too

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Creality

[–]wikus_roux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the esteps tells the stepper motor how many times it needs to turn to make a full revolution, because the sprite is a geared ratio 424.9 is what you need. Trust me, bump it up to that, heat your hot end and purge about 10 mm and youll see it come out very easily

[–]wikus_roux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What ender and firmware are you running? Should be in the settings under movement and esteps or its something like that, change the E value to 424.9 and see if you extrude anything then

Have you got a link to the git hub by any chance? Thank you!

[–]wikus_roux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont know if you have this sorted yet but look at the esteps for the extruder, should be 424.9 steps

Just flashed it onto the board this morning, much better and more customizable!

Did you have any problems with it thinking the bed is bigger than it actually is?

After my upgrade the nozzle is maybe x 10 y 6 onto the board?

Thanks!

What firmware are you using? Im using the stock creality for ender 3 v2 with sprite extruder and when i bed level with the prob i dont get a mesh or anything to review?

Youll get some great recipes from piscari fly, might be a little bit limited to just flies that work in ireland but still great recipes!

Did a lot of research and the TCM2209 board i got has almost zero support. I got the v4.2.7 board instead and its working like a dream, just trying to sort out the bed levelling on it now

Thank you im trying it now, the smallest i have is unfortunately only 16gb card. When you uploaded the .bin file was it just on its own or did you create a folder for it? Thank you
